Seaweed Salad

Servings: 4

Cook time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

2 ounces dried assorted seaweeds or wakame (such as Eden Foods brand)
¼ cup scallions
2 tablespoons coconut aminos
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
½ tablespoon sesame oil
Pinch of cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Directions

In a large bowl, rinse and soak the seaweed in enough water to cover 10 times its volume. After about 5 minutes (it should be tender), drain to remove excess water.

While the seaweed is soaking, make the dressing. Combine the scallions and remaining ingredients in a small bowl and stir well.

Sort through the seaweed to make sure there aren’t any hard parts and cut it if it’s excessively long (kitchen shears are useful for this task). Pour in the dressing and toss well to combine.
